"Life of a Restaurant"

$45.00

Tales and Recipes from La Colombe d'Or. A volume that is as charming as the restaurant itself, and supplemented by more than 60 of La Colombe d'Or's most celebrated Provencal-style recipes originated at the restaurant. Helen Studley, co-owner of the legendary establishment, takes the reader on a wonderful and delicious journey and tells of the heartaches and rewards of running a restaurant in Manhattan with the honest style of a candid confidante. "The dream of someday owning a restaurant is not unlike a sexual fantasy: most people don't really want it to come true," writes Studley. Previously-owned First Edition.
